All from the cover of the dense woods. This attack was an ambush. Reporter four shots in just 90 seconds. The shooting happening so quickly, police didnt even have time to react. And really had no chance to defend themselves. Reporter state and federal Law Enforcement officers continue to spread through this heavily wooded area of northeastern pennsylvania. We now have made the world where he can hide a very, very small place. Reporter eric matthew frein, now a top ten most wanted fugitive with a 100,000 reward for his capture. As you move along, with this grid search, you also are going to be looking for places that he could hide. The problem with this guy is, hes probably going to want to shoot you. Because hes just shot two cops and killed one. So, hes going to add you to the list. So, you have to constantly think that as you move along. In the event you are listening to this broadcast on the radio, on a portable radio, while cowering in some cold, damp hiding place, i want you to know one thing eric, we are coming for you. It is only a matter of time until we bring you to justice for committing this cowardly act. Reporter today, a heartwrenching scene. Bryon dicksons family gathering, who just celebrated his tenth wedding anniversary. Wife tiffany with their two sons, one wearing a state trooper hat in his fathers memory. Byron was a man of impeccable character. His moral threads were second to none. Reporter thousands of officers came here from as far away as minnesota to pay tribute to the former marine. God speed, hammer. We love you. And we miss you. Reporter dickson transferred stations just three months agoech. Dicksons fellow officers have been focussing on this area since the discovery of freins abandoned jeep. Inside, his drivers license, shell casings that match the murder weapon and camouflage pa face paint. No one knew if he was 1,000 miles away from here or in the woods at our location. By finding the vehicle, that really brought the realization that he could be in the local area. Reporter since then, this town has been on high alert. Were worried about everyones safety. The community in general. Im a lifelong resident here. Everyone is on edge. Reporter authorities have started to piece together who the alleged killer is. Frein is considered adept with long range guns. He was a member of his High School Rifle club. Taught to shoot by his father, a retired army major, who says his son doesnt miss when firing. Freins father also told police hes missing a. 308 rifle with a scope and an ak47 from his home. We have a var dangerous, armed criminal. Reporter today, we drove to freins hometown.

We knocked on his parents door. There was no answer. But we did talk to a neighbor. How does it feel to realize its not a very comfortable feeling, thats for sure. Its so close to home. Reporter you scared now . Ah, i wouldnt say scared, no. But you kind of look over your shoulder sometimes. Reporter frein is a survivalist with a passion for the military. He belonged to a Reenactment Group obsessed with Eastern European soldiers during the cord war. He had a small role in this movie. His name appearing in the credits. In his current frame of mind, frein now appears to have assumed that role in real life. Reporter freins alleged grudge against law officials may date back to an arrest in 2004 when he was accused of stealing clothing and supplies from a world war ii reenact iment. He will likely stay focused on the fight. Reporter investigators are likely reviewing past cases to determine freins next move. The manhunt for Centennial Park bomb earl Eric Robert Rudolph lasted five years, after detonating four bombs and killing two people. Rudolph fled to the appalachian mountains. He was arrested in North Carolina while rummages for food. The interactions with people typically get them caught. They are trying to survive, obviously, so, touching back into where people are.

How to get away with murder. Reporter shonda invited our cameras behind the scenes at the mother ship here in hollywood. The studios for her Production Company called shonda land. Just like i imagined. Its the place that holds all the secrets, where so many of those complex characters and legendary lines have come to life. What did you do . Reporter you have a way of really connecting with people. You know, sometimes im really amazed, because a lot of the time, when im writing, it feels a little bit like im writing for myself or just for my friends, you know, i remember my First Experience with greys, i felt like i was just kind of writing in my diary and felt really surprising to me that everybody else was watching. Lets do it. Reporter in fact, last year, a combined 19 Million People watched the greys anatomy and scandal season finales. And when scandal first premiered two years ago, viewers witnessed a historic shattering of that class ceiling, as Kerry Washington became the first africanamerican actress in nearly 40 years to star in a leading role in a Network Primetime show. The last being teresa graves. In the shortlived 1974 tv series get christy love. To knoll youre apart of a show that is doing that i want to pinch myself all the time. To be able to be apart of Something Like this, to be able to be apart of history, shondas history, to be able to be a small part of how shes transforming the world as we know it. I feel really blessed to be of service to her. I love him. Reporter its about authenticity and that your shows and your characters just reflect what we see in america. The Television Landscape should look like the world we see outside. Its not that big a deal. The package that people come in is the package that they come in, whats inside is whats the most interesting thing. Reporter and now, shondaland is continuing to break the mold, with their new legal thriller. How to get away with murder. Reporter starring oscar nominee viola davis. The new kid on the block, so to speak, viola davis. Woo. That is a miracle, to me, right . Viola davis on television . How is that happening . I still feel that way every single day. Reporter and viola cant believe it, either. You never thought that you i cant believe you said this, would get a role like this. Yeah. Reporter you said at your age, you are cast as someone who is sexy absolutely. Im usually people who are none of those things. How did you get this . It wasnt exactly legal. Then we just have to get creative. I would describe this show as everything Shonda Rhimes, everything thats mysterious and ta tantalizing and also something thats very characterdriven. Its very much about people being put in extraordinary circumstances and watching how they evolve. Watching how they, you know, hold up under the pressure. We bury the evidence. I did my job. Reporter talking about the leading women that you have, thank you. It is redefining how we look at the leading lady, so to speak, in these types of shows. I feel like i get asked the question a lot, how do you write these smart, strong women . And i always say, is the alternative stupid, weak women . Like, i dont know any of those. And nobody asks, how do you write smart, strong men. Thats not a question that anybodys ever asked before. Reporter nine years ago, here on the dramafilled hospital shonda began her craft of bringing characters to life. Stop it. Ow seriously . Seriously. I feel like i put a lot of myself into the characters. Somebody said, what does it feel like to write the voice of a black woman, somebody asked me that about scandal. I said, well, mcdreamys been speaking of a black woman for a long time now. Youre ignoring me. Trying to. You shouldnt. Why not . Because im someone you need to get to know to love. Ellen pompeo has been shondas leading lady since the very beginning. So, pick me. Choose me. Love me. Reporter these characters are, in essence, thats how she thinks. Shonda just doesnt see political orientation, sexual orientation, she really sees the soul. I think she finds the soul in the character and casts it that way. From the insideout, not the outsidein. Reporter between three shows and three daughters, shonda is constantly trying to juggle it all. Someone says, shonda, how do you do it . How do you balance it all . How do you have it all, girl . When you see my succeeding in one area of my life, im clearly failing in another area of my life. If im going to my daughters debut in her school musical, im missing sandra ohs very last night ever filming greys anatomy. It sounds awful to not be able to say goodbye to kristina yang, but it felt like there was no question where i was going to be that night, because i am someones mother. Reporter but beyond her gift for creating mustsee tv, shonda possesses boundless inner wisdom, which she gracefully imparted during her commencement speech last spring at her alma mater, dartmouth. Dreams are not real. Just do. Going to be a writer, start writing. You dont have a job, get one. Any job. Ditch the dream and be a doer, not a dreamer. Explamr reporter explain what you mean by that. If it seems like the most amazing one, its the way to go. Reporter and all that doing has taken shonda to this monumental moment. Three shows, one night and plenty of scandals, of course. Can we get any spoilers . She has the keys to the kingdom on thursday night. Well, the queendom, yes. She has the keeps to the queendom. Reporter she does. Wow. I know. Its amazing. To think that from 8 00 until 11 00, you are stepping into a land that is shondas. But whats so powerful about the work that shonda creates is that often, when you dive into that world, the characters are so real and so human, that you wind up being present with yourself in a different way. So, you get to escape your life but you also get to reflect on your own life. I think thats the ideal balance in any form of real meaningful entertainment. Thats deep. Our thanks to Robin Roberts and shonda for that tour of shondaland. Gave greys anatomy, scandal and how to get away with murder all prel meiring thursday on abc.

Recordshattering turnout in scotland tonight with the fate of the United Kingdom, the land of the royals, hanging in the balance. A flood of votes and tonight, the historic results still being tallied, after a heated political battle. Abcs chief Foreign Correspondent terry moran has the very latest. Terry . Reporter hello, juju. Its been a long, dark, damp and suspenseful night here in scotland as they count the votes. And it looks like, right now, the answer is no. The bbc and others projecting that scottish voters in great numbers have come out and decided to stay with the United Kingdom. Stay governed, primarily, from london, and rejected the idea that they could become an independent nation. It was a huge campaign, highly emotional, enormous turnout. 84 across the country. 90 in some places. People saying democracys the real winner. But i got to tell you, probably the most relieved person in the British Isles right now is over in balmoro castle. The royal family had to walk a tight rope. They arent supposed to talk about politics. She sent signals, as did Prince William and prince harry that they wanted scotland to stay, and here they have stayed. Another relieved person, president barack obama. For 60 years, president s in crisis have made their first call to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and from now on, it looks like, scotland will remain part of that equation. Juju .
